Filtering of the Internet

From CNN

"Believe the conspiracy theories -- out of sight and without your knowledge, governments truly are filtering what you see on the Internet. Internet users are increasingly having content blocked by governments around the world. The recent conflict between Georgia and Russia has highlighted many of the issues at play with Internet filtering, as its increasing use by governments raises serious doubts about the freedom of the Web."

I'm an electrician from New Zealand, and I have noticed that many sites are unavailable here in New Zealand. Often times there hate sites, but sometimes they are also just sites that are against the government.

That bothers me sometimes, but overall my life is good. I love New Zealand, and in general, I like our government.
